Danish prog newcomers return with a very. personal sophomore album in the form of “To Exit A Maelstrom”. We talked to vocalist Mikkel A. Lohmann and drummer Christian Dahl-Blumenberg about increasing the heaviness, why they don’t play Bossa Nova and the challenges of playing emotionally heavy music live.
